Create Your Fest

Step-by-Step Guide

Creating your fest is the first step in setting up your competition management system. Follow these steps to get started:

1. Choose Your Subdomain

What is a subdomain? Your subdomain is the unique URL where your fest will be accessible. It will look like: your-fest-name.festie.app

How to choose:

• Must be unique across all fests
• Can only contain lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens
• Cannot start or end with a hyphen
• Choose something memorable and descriptive

Examples:

• college-fest-2024
• sports-competition
• cultural-festival

💡 Tip: You can change your subdomain later from the fest settings if needed.

2. Enter Fest Name

What to enter:

• The official name of your fest
• This will appear on all public pages
• Used in certificates and posters
• Should be clear and descriptive

Examples:

• “Annual College Cultural Fest 2024”
• “Inter-School Sports Competition”
• “Tech Innovation Challenge”

💡 Tip: You can edit the fest name anytime from the fest settings.

3. Fill Event Details

Event Information:

• Start Date: When your fest begins
• End Date: When your fest ends
• Location: Where the fest is taking place
• Description: Brief description of your fest

Why this matters:

• Helps participants understand the timeline
• Appears on public pages and schedules
• Used for planning and coordination

💡 Tip: All these details can be updated later from the fest settings.

4. Add Organizer Details

Organizer Information:

• Organizer Name: Your name or organization name
• Email: Contact email for the fest
• Phone: Contact number (optional)
• Address: Physical address (optional)

💡 Tip: You can update organizer details anytime from the fest settings.

Once you’ve filled in all the details:

1. Review all the information you’ve entered
2. Click “Create Fest” button
3. Wait for the system to set up your fest
4. You’ll be redirected to your fest dashboard
